New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2: Regenerate a Variation of a Flow in Copilot

Power AutomateThis post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2.

The 8th of the new functionality in the Copilot for Power Automate section is regenerate a variation of a flow in Copilot.

In Power Automate, the Copilot creating wizard is a tool that helps you design and build flows using AI assistance. You can describe your desired flow, and Copilot generates a preliminary version of the flow. If the initial version isn’t satisfactory, you can ask Copilot to regenerate a different variation of the flow, allowing you to explore alternative designs and find the best solution for your needs.

Feature Details

Prior to this feature, you were given a flow recommendation by Copilot after you described what you wanted. You had to either accept it or update your query to regenerate. With this feature, you don’t need to update your query. Instead, you can select Regenerate to force a new variation to be generated. You can choose from different variations to select the one you like the best.

Power AutomateThis post is part of the New Functionality In Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2 series in which I am taking a look at the new functionality introduced in Microsoft Power Automate 2024 Wave 2.

General Availability: Nov 2024

Feature Details

When you select the plus sign (+) for an action in the designer, the action pane opens. The action pane lets you search and browse for connectors and actions. Today, it’s difficult to find the connector makers want, as there’s no way to access favorite or highly frequently used connectors, or most common built-in tools of a flow. With this change, makers can favorite any connector or action so they show up in the Add an action pane by default under the Favorites section. They can quickly access AI capabilities in the product under the AI capabilities section, and they can quickly leverage building blocks or built-in tools like Control, Data operation, JSON, and more, under the Builtin tools section.

This improvement to the Browse connectors action pane in cloud flows makes it more accessible and efficient to makers while adding artifacts to their flow.
